XRP may be less exposed to quantum threats than bitcoin, experts say

What Happened

Google's quantum computing advances raised concerns about blockchain security. Experts say XRP's architecture better protects against quantum threats than Bitcoin. A recent audit found 300,000 XRP accounts holding 2.4 billion XRP never exposed their public keys, making them quantum-safe. Only two dormant whale accounts holding 21 million XRP remain vulnerable. XRP Ledger's key rotation feature allows account security updates without moving funds.
